story from Jan 27, 2013, titled Congress sees immigration overhaul this year; Obama will make pitch in Las Vegas speech.
In it, Reno Gazette-Journal reports that:

Republican and Democratic lawmakers were cautiously optimistic Sunday that a long-sought overhaul of the nation's immigration system that includes a pathway to citizenship for the 11 million illegal immigrants currently in the country will clear Congress this year, the result of changes in the political landscape shown in November's election.

If all of these I L L E G A L 'immigrants' really want to become legal why haven't they or their families done so already.

As many want it there are probably just as many that don't want it because they don't have to pay taxes among other things.

If an American citizen did some of things many of these ILLEGAL aliens have done like use stolen social security numbers we would have a CRIMINAL record and done jail time for fraud and/or identity theft. Or if an American citizen fails to pay taxes just for a few years they go to jail for income tax evasion, a federal CRIME.

Many of these ILLEGALs literally want to sit on both sides of the fence.

I agree 100%. But, the only way to rid ourselves of the huge problem is to prove these Politicians wrong (who are hell bent on giving Amnesty). We all know illegals are not going to assimilate,learn English and pay taxes let alone back taxes. They benefit more keeping their status as is. Collecting welfare for their children,working under the table,collecting Child tax credit and a list of other freebies. In order to fix what is broken in America we (unfortunately) must(as hard as it hurt)let America continue down it's path. Like the saying goes "it has to get worse before it can begin to get better"(not the actual wording,but you get my point).

Most would have become legal if it was possible, but in almost all cases there is no way to legalize their status while in the US. Worse then that, if they attempt to return home to obtain a visa the US imposes stiff penalties for leaving the country.

we put limits on the numbers that can come in because anybody who has any commonsense knows that the usa cannot let everyone into the country.

as it stands now, the pro-illegals want to allow an amnesty than would enable everybody who is here before a certain date citizenship.

imagine if 100 million people applied for the amnesty before the due date expires. do you think america could assimilate that many people in the short time that the pro-illegals envision?

what happens if that number exceeds 200 million? it could happen. remember. there are over 6 billion non-usa citizens out there in the world.

how many of them do you think would be happy to live in the usa?

the only sane option is to just enforce our current laws. deport those who are here illegally.

<quoted text>The Constitution is supposed to be for American citizens and the U.S., not the rest of the world. Especially not for illegal aliens who have no repect for any law.

You live in the State which will suffer the very worst consequences from Obama's mission to add another 25,000,000 plus peasants on top of the 12,000,000 already here to the roles of ObamaCare and Welfare using the weapon of FAMILY REUNIFICATION against the American people.

Did you hear his speech? He wants to speed up the Family Reunification to crush Americans under the dead weight of accomodating them when EVERY ONE knows we have NO JOBS for uneducated low skill labor.

I believe in re-unification of families !!

Those who left their families to come here, should go back home.

Those who created families when they came here, should go back home.

Plain and simple.

Then GET TO THE BACK OF THE LINE and come in like everyone else does LEGALLY.

<quoted text>am I?ok, genius. you tell me where you will draw the line on the amnesty? when the numbers start to reach millions, are you going to pull the plug so to speak at 11 million?something tells me you will not.tell us, all mighty one, who will be allowed to come in, and who will not?

You are silly. Your response has absolutely nothing to do with my post. You just rattle on about imaginary "amnesty" and some weird idea of 200 million undocumented workers hiding in the shadows.

this whole post is about amnesty. YOUR post is about amnesty.

imaginery amnesty?

like they say.. if it looks like a democrat, talks like a democrat, then, it must be a democrat. right?

immigration reform is just another way of saying amnesty.

as for weird idea of 200 million undocumented workers. lady, they don't know how many "undocumented workers" there are. so, if everybody in mexico and china or anywhere else just happened to want usa citizenship, what's to stop them from just flying over and getting it if there is an amnesty?

you idiots haven't even thought out what would happen if the numbers are higher then 11 million...now that is the honest truth.

I forgot. English is not your native language. Try looking up the word "amnesty" and learn the meaning. Nobody has proposed amnesty since Reagan. You can look him up too. You might be surprised to learn he was not a Democrat.
